>> pelley: good evening. nearly a year after adam lanza murdered 20 first graders and six adults at sandy hook elementary school in newtown, connecticut, we know more tonight about what happened that day but not the one thing everyone wants to know-- why he did it. the final prosecutor's report out late today says lanza had significant mental health issues but was under no extreme emotional disturbance that would explain his actions. the report said lanza had a fascination with mass shootings and firearms but he displayed no aggressive or threatening tendencies. along with the report, prosecutors released this photograph of lanza's bushmaster semiautomatic rifle. we have more now on this report from elaine quijano. >> reporter: this is the shattered front glass window shot out by adam lanza so he could entered enter the locked sandy hook elementary school. the report says it was 9:35:39

when police received the first 911 call. >> sandy hook school caller is indicating someone is shooting in the building. >> reporter: by 9:39 the first officer arrived, a:40, police recall hearing a last gunshot. police officers enter almost six minutes after first getting there. the report says police were operating under the assumption there was more than one shooter. mike mcgowan was one of the first newtown police officers inside. we spoke to him last december. >> it was completely dark. and there was nobody in the halls. >> reporter: what did you hear? >> we didn't hear anything? we could basically just smell gun powder and we started moving down. >> reporter: the report concludes lanza was already dead when police entered. he killed principal dawn hochsprung and school psychologist mary sherlach in a hallway. he then went into the main office where the staff was hiding from him.

lanza returned to the hallway and went into first grade classrooms 8 and 10. he kill 15d children and two teachers in classroom 8 and five children and two teachers in classroom 10. lanza was found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound in classroom 10. police believe lanza shot his mother four times at their home before heading to the school. the report provides new details about lanza's life, including a preoccupation with mass shootings, in particular the columbine shootings. a spreadsheet with mass murders over the years listing information about each shooting. investigators found a computer game titled "school shooting" and images of lanza holding a handgun to his head. before the shooting, lanza's mother nancy became concerned that her son "hadn't gone anywhere in three months and would only communicate with her by e-mail." the report also addressed lanza's mental health saying he was diagnosed with asperger's in 2005 and was described by doctors who treated him as presenting with significant

social impairments and extreme anxiety. it was also noted that he lacked empathy. but those doctors did not see anything that would have predicted his future behavior. data from adam lanza's g.p.s. showed he was me the vicinity of sandy hook elementary school the day before the shooting. scott, the families of the victims were briefed on this report and chose not to comment today. >> pelley: elaine, thank you very much. now on to another important story breaking this evening. severe weather has taken lives and is making a mess of things before the holiday. a storm system blamed for at least ten deaths is on the move from texas and is headed toward the northeast as millions of americans head to the highways and airports for thanksgiving. anna werner is in dallas for us tonight. anna? >> reporter: scott, half of the dead and many of those injured in storm-related traffic accidents were here in texas.

parts of west texas got as much as five inches of snow, but it was ice that caused the most travel problems. nearly 500 flights were canceled at dallas fort worth airport. evan van doren was trying to get to indiana. >> i look forward to thanksgiving all year long. having a day cut off this trip is not the best thing in the world for me. >> reporter: icy conditions crept east into oklahoma, causing this s.u.v. to flip over and a 12-car pileup in arkansas. the mayhem kept tommy easter ling and his wrecking service busy. >> people don't realize when they cross those bridges that they've got ice on them. when they cross it, they lose it. >> reporter: but the same system was a welcome holiday boost for ski areas in colorado. they expect their best season in six years. and in utah tonight rescuers are searching for five college students who were on a backpacking trip about three hours southeast of salt lake city. scott, those students were expected to return from their

trips yesterday. >> pelley: anna, thanks very much. as we said, it is all headed east. soaking rains are expected along the i-95 corridor tomorrow and wednesday with snow in northern new england. today president obama called this weekend's nuclear deal with iran a first step in preventing iran from building an atomic bomb. under this agreement, iran said that it won't expand its uranium enrichment for six months. it also agreed to new monitoring. in return, the u.s. and its allies will ease slightly some economic sanctions that have crippled the iranian economy. we have two reports on this tonight beginning with major garrett at the white house. major? >> reporter: scott, the white house got to work almost immediately on the next phase of these talks, the one december signed to end-- not merely halt-- iran's nuclear weapons program. at president obama's invitation, israel's national security advisor will travel to washington next week to play a key role in those negotiations.

facing skepticism from congress and israel president obama defended the deal with iran as a victory for diplomacy over war. >> we can not close the door on diplomacy and we can not rule out peaceful solutions to the world's problems. we can not commit ourselves to an endless cycle of conflict. and tough talk and bluster may be the easy thing to do politically, but it's not the right thing for our security. >> reporter: israeli prime minister netanyahu rejected the deal because it leaves iran's uranium enrichment capabilities and thi thus the machinery to ma nuclear bomb in place. >> israel is not bound by this agreement. we can not and will not allow a regime that calls for the destruction of israel to obtain the means to achieve this goal. we will not allow iran to have a nuclear weapons capability. >> i do think it was the sanctions and the threat of military action that brought the'rians to the table. >> reporter: new york congressman elliot engel-- top

democrat on the foreign affairs committee and author of a new tougher set of sanctions against iran-- wants the white house to keep up the pressure. >> the iranians are talking about how this agreement won the right to enrich. they don't have the right to enrich and we need to make it very clear to them. >> reporter: the president's advisors say a military strike remains an option if iran doesn't live up to this agreement but with economic sanctions being eased and a second round of negotiations beginning that threat, scott, appears more distant that ever. >> pelley: major, thank you. so how is this playing in iran? elizabeth palmer has that part of the story. >> reporter: for iranians desperate for sanctions relief, the geneva deal delivered as soon as it was signed. iran's currency started gathering strength-- to the relief of business owners in tehran's bazaar. that has man put it "75 million people finally slept well last night." happy crowds turned out to cheer the iranian negotiators as they arrived back in tehran.

young people-- especially who hope the deal will bring jobs and revive the economy. but not everyone was so pleased. the main conservative newspaper headline red "americans not trustworthy." it's a view shared by thousands of core hard-liners. at a rally last week, the old cry went up "death to america." the idea of a deal with their number one enemy will be hard to swallow, but they have no choice as it's got the blessing of iran's supreme leader-- at least for now. >> pelley: liz, you've been covering the negotiations in geneva. what's coming in this next round of talks? >> well, the complexity and the difficult politics of the next round are likely to make what we've just seen in geneva look like a picnic, scott. the u.s. and its allies will want iran not only to freeze its program next time now actually roll it back and, of course, iran is going to want multi,

multibillions of dollars worth of sanctions relief on oil and also on banking. >> pelley: the hard part still ahead. liz palmer in our london newsroom. thanks, liz. iran, of course, is on the persian gulf so with the nuclear deal world oil prices fell down 75 cents to close just over $94 a barrel. the average price of gasoline held steady at $3.28 a gallon. the state of michigan said today it is joining a federal investigation into a deadly outbreak of meningitis. that outbreak traced back to tainted steroids that were mixed at a massachusetts pharmacy. new england compounding center. jim axelrod is here to get us up to date on the case. jim? >> reporter: we learned today that the federal investigation into n.e.c.c. is at a crile cal phase and a source says charges could be filed soon after the first of next year. that would be welcome news for scott shaw in denton, north carolina, who's been making

regular trips to the cemetery for 13 months now mourning his mother. >> we could take the dying, but the suffering was beyond what we could take. >> reporter: she was a vibrant 77-year-old until she took tainted steroid injections compounded by n.e.c.c. for a bulging disk in her back and contracted fungal meningitis. she died a cruel death, plagued by crippling headaches and excruciating sensitivity to light. >> it was literally a war going on within her body. she had a fungus that was growing that was taking her over and the most powerful drugs we had trying to hold it back. >> reporter: shaw was one of 64 people to die from contaminated drugs compounded by n.e.c.c. 687 others were sickened. one year after the company shut down, owners barry cadden and greg conigliaro are still free, living in their large homes

outside boston. n.e.c.c. has filed for bankruptcy, but lawyers for the victims say in the year prior to the filing the owners transferred more than $16 million to their personal accounts. michael sullivan is a former u.s. attorney in boston. >> you want to identify those people at the highest level in the organization that are criminally culpable and that's partly what the government is doing and that's what takes a lot of time. >> reporter: f.b.i. agents in at least three sates are conducting interviews. scott shaw met with agents in north carolina two weeks ago. do you feel the wheels of justice are moving quickly enough? >> in a sense no. but in a sense i don't want a rash decision. >> reporter: a spokesman for n.e.c.c.'s owners had no comment when we reached him today. that's the criminal case. scott shaw and hundreds of other victims' families have filed a civil suit, scott. >> pelley: jim, thank you very

much. in a major reversal today, the food and drug administration lifted the safety restrictions on the diabetes pill avandia. those restrictions were imposed in 2010 when reports came out that avandia can increase a patient's risk of heart attack. but new evidence now shows that's not the case. there's a new problem with the boeing 787 dreamliner. and two coaches and two school administrators are charged in connection with a notorious rape case when the "cbs evening news" continues. we're going across america to let people try the deep sweep power brush by oral-b for the first time. wow. it's "wow," you know? wow. wow. that feels wow!

>> pelley: a notorious rape case took an unexpected turn today. in march, two high school football players from ohio were convicted of attacking a girl at a party. well, today charges were filed against the superintendent of schools, a principal, and two coaches. dean reynolds has been following the case. >> reporter: in football-crazy steubenville, ohio, the rape case was rivetting and humiliating. photos posted online of the drunk 16-year-old victim dragd from room to room by two players at a crowded party fueled the suspicion that many more were guilty but had escaped punishment. last january, we asked school superintendent michael mcvey

why, for example, responsibility for disciplining any other players admittedly at the party was given to the football coach. do you see the possible conflict of interest there? >> protocol was followed, sir. >> reporter: what is the protocol? did you and the principal defer to the football coach? >> we followed our discipline protocol as we usually do. once everything is over, when the facts are out, then we will make our decisions of what has to be done or who was involved or not involved. >> reporter: but mcvey now stands indicted on charges of tampering with evidence, lying to investigators and urging others to lie. two coaches and a principal have also been indicted. >> that's what this is about. it's about holding adults accountable. >> reporter: ohio attorney general mike dewine says the accused were more concerned with the school and its football program than the victim. >> this began as a rape of a 16-year-old girl, a horrible crime of violence. but it also represents blurred,

stretched, and distorted boundaries of right and wrong. >> reporter: so far, scott, there's been no reaction from the board of education or from superintendent mcvey who, along with the other suspects, will be arraigned on december 6. >> pelley: dean reynolds in our chicago newsroom. dean, thank you very much. boeing is telling airlines about the potential for ice damage in general electric jet engines that power boeing's 787 dreamliner and its 747-8. boeing has told airlines not to fly into thunderstorms which can produce high -- can produce ice at high altitudes. at least six planes have been problems. all landed safely. g.e. said today it's working on a fix. a rolling stone gathers a new title. that story is is coming up. with amazing rewards. with the spark cash card from capital one,
